Hello there, and welcome to the world of Pokémon.
My name is Professor Jacob, and thank you so much for attending
this lecture on Pokémon biology. Joining me here in the classroom
today is of course, my wonderful teaching assistant, Mr. Curtis.
Mr. Curtis, how are you doing? How are you?
How? What's?
Going oh, professor, I'm so happy to be here in in your
presence, enjoying this classroom that we got going on
today. So real quiet, real quiet class
today. Really little dialed in, lost.
In a lot going. On, you know, good to be back at
my desk like always, where it's like, you know, been worn in and
shaped to my all my curves and bumps, you know, so.
Hashtag good where they are. Let's get it.
Let's get it trending, please. Sorry, what was the hashtag
getting clean? It was a hashtag Curtis's curve.
Curves and. Bumps, Curtis's curves and
bumps. So wait, Curtis's curves and
bumps or Curtis's hashtag? Curtis's curves hashtag Curtis's
bumps? Are are hashtags still a thing?
Is that still a thing? Do people still do hashtags?
I don't I. Don't #hashtag.
Think I would note some 10. Yeah, cuz you're 10.
You're kind of like in this like guys right now, but yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're really kind of out of it.
Also, that young spry voice you're hearing is our young
trainer and training Corbin. Corbin, how are you?
I'm good, I'm doing great, I'm doing awesome.
I did go out for breakfast with Lucky Bean favorite this
morning. Yes, we did get some poached
Torchic eggs. Those were good.
But yeah, no, I had a, had a, had a fun.
Wait, like real torchic eggs? Or like you can't believe it's
not torchic eggs eggs. It's it's it's not it's you
can't believe it's not Torchic eggs.
Yeah, yeah. So it's it's the other vegan 1.
So, but yeah, I went out I went out to breakfast with lucky bean
favorite. It's not Listen, he's not Wait,
this is she right? She.
I do not remember the gender Corbin.
That's they, I went out with them.
I didn't check. Sorry.
They are, you know, they're not my Pokémon.
Lucky being favorite is not technically my Pokémon.
But no, I'm just not loud. I'm pretending that they.
Are I mean you can be friends with Lucky being favorite?
Well sure. I mean like Perry, you can't
command them to do attack moves in battle.
That's fine, that's fine. Just don't tell Perry that he's
kind of been replaced. I mean I.
Haven't talked to. Perry in well over a year.
I'm not sure what Perry's even been up to at this point.
Well, you don't stay in contact with Perry.
No, do you? I talk.
I talk to Perry all the time. Yeah.
What's? He doing?
How's he going? Too, you know he's still.
I don't really care. Oh wow, thinking.
Of Lucky being favorites, we you know you you students may
remember that we are the Don Fan Derby champions at the moment.
Yeah, spoilers. Have you listened to Don Fan
spoilers? You can't.
What do you mean spoilers? It's it's real life events that
happened in the classroom. Corbin, it's not.
I I know you're real people don't keep.
OK, Whatever it was, it was all over the paper too.
Yeah, it's hard to say. Plus, we've been all over the
news, so. Like yeah, the first first ever
fan P winning the Don fan Derby. It's unheard of.
Yeah, you know what? You know what was annoying on
all the articles? You guys all had your faces.
We were all posing with Lucky being favorite, and my face was
blocked out of it. Somebody, I think Mr. Curtis's
hand was in front of my face. Well, you're in old Corbin.
No one's you're able to see it. You're a minor.
You have to. We have to blur your face.
We can't. There's laws against against
having minors in in the paper. I've only been in a cave like
once or twice I think. That hardly makes me a minor,
but if you say so. Yeah, I'll let that sit.
But you know, we did. I don't know if we talked about
it before, but we did get a very, very special prize from
the Don Fan Derby. We did.
No, but OK, listen, I I'll, I'll talk about it here in a little
bit before before we get into that, I want to read a gang or
male if that's OK with everybody, Yeah.
Professor, did you bring your Linton to class today?
Yeah, yeah, Little Linton here is actually bringing me the
Gangar mail that I was gonna read.
Thank you. I still haven't figured a name
for you yet. We'll figure out something by
OK. Latatious.
What? Nothing.
Go ahead. OK so this Gengar mail comes to
us from a student named Trevor. It's a very quick one very easy
one. It says I just want to say you
guys are so awesome and just give the poor boy his Pokémon
already and do all 1025 please 1025 what like push ups or
things off of the. I can do that many steps in a
day. Burger King Gambit's menu.
Right. Yeah, yeah. 1025 What?
Also, I'm not that poor. OK, All right.
I've I've made I got a little bit of prize money from the Don
Fan Derby. Wait.
I was like wait, wait, hold on, wait, wait, wait.
Prize money. Yeah, there was money.
There was money on on the counter, you know, as we were
walking out next to the register.
I just assumed that was like part of the prize money.
Oh, that's awkward. Corbin, did you steal somebody's
money? How much from you?
How much from? The dive underneath, it's how
much? It's like it's like like 2 to
300 bucks, something like that. It's not a lot, OK.
I mean in this, in this economy. In this economy, in.
This economy 300 bucks what you want a?
Coffee when you're 10 years old, 2 to 300 bucks, that's like
that's a salary right there. That's a big deal.
I'm gonna make that money last forever.
Although I did spend 50 of it this morning on our breakfast
with like a being favorite so. Wow, a good deal, a good deal.
Yeah, a great deal. Yeah, we got a ton of stuff.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, last time you got this
kind of money, I think you said you were quitting the class.
That's right. Yeah, you know, I know that
we're just so close to the end of Joe to.
I might as well just stick it out, you know?
Yeah, just see. Just see how it ends.
To see how it ends, see what happens.
Yeah, you. Know just to just to answer
Trevors Ganga mail here. Unfortunately, I cannot just
give Corbin his Pokémon already because, you know, it's just
against the law. It's against the school
regulations. He needs to learn about the
Pokémon before he can have a Pokémon.
This is something that everybody goes through, so I don't know
why we're all trying to make an exception for Corbin just
because he's sad and cries a lot.
Right. It's because I'm cute and I have
skills and I can rap and. They don't know what you look
like, Corbin. They see the design, the the art
of me, blue hair and the. Right, purple hair and the.
Yeah, the very my Mr. my mask features.
You're right, I guess. Enough for people to get
excited, you know? Well, regardless, thank you so
much for the getting your mail, Trevor, Mr. Curse, Gold Star,
they did call us. Awesome.
I guess so. I mean, did they talk about how
great bug types are or did they talk about, you know, how cool
Spinrak is? They did call us awesome and
they're, and when they call you awesome, I think they're kind
of, you know. That's right.
I am just, I'm just an avatar for the Night Mother and all the
spinner racks of the area. So you know what?
I I'll give him a Gold Star. Hey, you can have a Gold Star.
Gold Star awarded. Awesome.
Thank you so much, Trevor, for sending in that Gangar mail.
If you students out there would like to send us a Gangar mail,
you can send it to wwopokemon@gmail.com.
The G stands for Gengar. All right, let's let's switch
gears here and I do have one last thing I really want to talk
about before we get into the lesson.
Sure. So.
I'm ready on I'm ready on baited breath, professor.
So the thing that we won from the Don van der Bee, it's, it's
this little box here. As you can see, I'm holding it
on my hands. I pulled it on my desk.
Here it is. Yep.
Very nice. Very nice.
Yeah. So it just says upgrade on it.
So what does it do? I feel like it's.
Well, I mean, I don't know. Duck Corbin is useless.
It upgrades, obviously. Yeah.
So I was thinking somebody who's in desperate need of an upgrade,
somebody we haven't heard from in a little bit, Yeah, someone
who maybe a lot of people are very worried about.
Is Perry coming? No, not Perry.
Oh, OK, Perry's fine. Everybody loves Perry.
It's a rocket. Yeah, I think, I think the.
Inferos rocket, the inferos OK. We're going.
I think we need to get this up to rocket the Inferos who we
sent in the space because it was his dream.
He did want to go. He did say that.
He wanted to go, and I made his dream come true by throwing into
space with a Machamp. That's right.
Now we haven't. Are we going to throw?
Are we going to throw this up to space with a Machamp?
No, Well, no. That'd be horribly inaccurate,
Mr. Curtis. Gosh, you can't keep throwing
things into space with the Champs.
That's true. That's.
True. Come on.
Only with life beings can you do that.
Yeah. Inanimate objects.
What's wrong? With you, I'm so do you
understand the amount of calculations we would have to
do, Mr. Curtis, to get this to exactly to where Rocket is?
You know, throwing it, you know, I bet you William Shire could do
it. William Shire in the show you.
Know he does have a mind for math.
I always forget that about William Shire anyways.
Anyways, let's focus here. So yeah, I was I think we should
send up the upgrade to rocket for his his helmet.
So maybe he could add I don't know, maybe it will upgrade it
to have some kind of communication features.
Who knows. It just says upgrade.
I don't know what it upgrades. OK, I think I think I know the
perfect person for this task. I'm trying to page him.
Fine, I'll do it. I wish you'd give me a heads.
Up. No, not you, Corbin.
All right, Corbin, I got your suit over here and let me let me
pull that out of the closet here.
It's like. Perfectly my size.
You planned this? You want me to go to Saw?
I guess I'll go to space. All right.
It's only a matter of time anyway right now.
Let me have the helmet here. What's that?
Mean well, I just, I mean, there's only, you know, he's
done a lot of fun activities in this class.
It was only a matter of time before we go to space.
Yeah, we really jumped the Sharpedo when we sent Corbin to
space. Well, we haven't done it yet,
but we will be jumping. We're not.
We're not sending Corbin to space, all right?
It's somebody else. Somebody has a lot of work for
this this lesson series. I'm gonna go ahead right now.
Hey, Portia, can you can you come in here?
Oh. My God, no.
God, she. Hi.
She pops up so quickly. Hi Portia.
Hi, Hi Portia Yeah yeah, we don't see you in person a lot.
You normally just kind of gengar male us I know, but thank you
for coming in person. So you know Rocket, right?
Portia of. Course the answer was you sent
to his death. No, I did not send him to his
death. Alright, don't say that for
sure. That's that's.
But you've seen the light, You've seen the blinking light.
No, no light. Yeah, I haven't either.
So that's haven't we need? The blinking light in a while.
Yeah, concerning. Yeah.
So it's got me kind of concerned as well.
So, so Portia, I need you to take this upgrade here.
Here you go. And can you deliver it?
I, I think the last that we saw the, if I'm just doing my
calculations correctly, triangulations and you know what
not, I think rocket was near the, the Hoen space station up
there, the, the Hoen International Space Station.
Yes, the hiss. We love.
The. Hiss.
They used to call it the hoss and then they added the inter.
I guess it's interregional. Well, yeah, Hoss didn't sound
right. It was the the Hohen Outer
National Space Station just didn't sound right.
So yeah, Hiss sounds better. Yeah, Hohen International.
Yeah, Interregional Hohen Interregional Space Station.
I'm changing it. I mean, that's what it's
supposed to be. Yeah, I think, I think Rocket
was somewhere in the vicinity. So we're going to, we're gonna
like, I'm gonna give you this upgrade.
If you could just, you know, do whatever you do, whatever kind
of like computer magic you do just to teleport yourself into
the computer and then, yeah, upload yourself into the the
hiss if you could. The database oh wait, are we
gonna are we connected to anybody at the hiss right now or
are we gonna like webcam call anybody or?
I mean, Portia. Portia can When she gets up
there, she can webcam us back. OK, well I forget she can do all
that stuff. OK, yeah, I can do that.
Porsche, Are you ready to go? I Captain.
Okay, great, I guess I'll put your suit back in the closet
then. I'm sorry.
And I mean I do. You want to put in on Porsche,
Mr. Curtis? That would be a good idea,
actually. Yeah.
Porsche here. I could put the helmet on you at
least. Come.
Please do not touch. OK, All right.
Well, you didn't have to say that more.
So that was that was that was kind of rude.
OK, well, just let her, OK? Yeah, OK.
Just I don't, I wouldn't want him to touch me either.
So just go. Go as you are, Portia, and we'll
see you up there. OK.
Ready. Do we just press the enter
button on the keyboard? No.
No, she's got it. She can do it.
OK Oh God, Oh my gosh. Yeah, the computer glowed.
Did you see that? Yeah, that was crazy.
OK, so I'm seeing a blank screen.
Yeah, well, I mean, just got the upload to, there's a lot of data
in Porsche to get uploaded. Maybe we can talk about our days
while it's happening. I mean, I guess I maybe we could
talk about what Pokémon we're learning about.
Yeah, it's a Decidui professor. I see it's not decidui, no.
No, not. Is it?
Can we learn about Fappy again? I wish we could learn about
Phampy, that was so much fun. But no, we can't fancy 2, the
sequel to Phampy. Yeah, maybe this is a good old
Phampy 2. What?
Come on. I think we should have AI think
we should have one lesson that has whatever the Pokémon's name
and then 2 after it. I think this should be Phampy 2.
I think this will be the first sequel, the first sequel lesson.
You know what, Corbett? I think you're on to something.
And you know I should have, I should have.
I feel so silly. I should have asked Porsche
while she was here if she knows anything about this Pokémon,
because this week we're learning about Porygon 2.
What the? Sequel to Porsche?
Wait, so. Hold on.
Wait. So we had Porsche come to the
classroom? You didn't ask Porsche about
Porygon 2? I was.
So worried about rocket and getting this upgrade to rocket I
didn't even think about it. I was today years old and I when
I learned that there's another Porygon.
So what? What is this?
Like a variant? What is his?
Old thing, how old he was. Right, So what is this thing?
What is a Porygon 2? Is it like MU 2?
Is it going to kill us and trap me in a ball and say a bunch of
mean things and a weird deep voice?
Oh yeah, we did already do a Pokémon where it was just a 2 on
the end of its name. This is not unique.
This is not the first time it's happening.
Lame. OK, I guess it's not listening
now. OK, so OK, here let me go.
I guess since we don't have a pouring on to let me go ahead
and describe it real quick. So it oh, wait, hold on, we're
getting a. Wait, hold on.
Oh. Here.
Hello. Oh, it's a little bit static
there. Hey, hey, who's that?
Who's that? Hello.
Oh, Porsche. Oh my gosh, that is Porsche.
I'm like Porsche. That's not Porsche.
What? Your voice is a little bit
deeper, Porsche. Are you sure that's you?
Look. Really.
Where's where's all your sharp angles?
Yeah, Why do you look like porcelain now?
Yeah. Huh.
What's going on? What's Porcelain Porsche?
Wait, now I'm getting, now it's clearing up a little bit guys
eyes what I think Porsche evolved.
Wow, that Porsche you evolved I'm.
Checking Yep, you know, round little toe beans, little little
eyes with like the little duck bill kind of mouth, big BLOB
body with a blobbish tail. That's a.
That's a Porygon big. BLOB body with a blobbish tail
T-shirt. Big BLOB body with a blobbish
tail. It's Corbin.
Corbin. Would you like to describe
Porsche? Two.
Wait, We. You already did it.
Question. I didn't do it.
Well, you could do it again. Better.
Are we still calling? Gonna call her Porsche or should
we call her Porsche 2? Porsche.
What do you like? Porsche 2 sounds dumb.
Well, OK. Stick with Porsche.
We'll stick with Porsche then. Fine, she is OK not be mean to
best. Dumb question, OK.
Don't worry. Wow, Porsche.
She is all of a sudden she evolves into a porgon too, and
she gets all. I know it's still you, Porsche.
Get all these. Get all these, you know,
upgraded processing power and everything kind.
Of she's kind of given like teenager teenager vibes.
Wow, sassy, sassy no. You're sassy.
All right. Subscriber.
Subscriber So looks very similar to a regular Porygon, except all
of the sharp edges are gone, as Mr. Curtis said.
And it's very round. So it has more of like a defined
head and neck and like round body.
It kind of looks like, you know, like a little rubber ducklit
toy, but it's like, you know, most of it's like pink, but the
blue's a little bit different now.
It's not like teal, like Porsche had like teal on her tail and on
her chest and on her little legs.
But like now it's like a like it's almost like a more like
maybe royal blue. I don't really not explain it.
Sky blue. Sky blue.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sky blue, sky baby blue.
And then it's got a more defined beak in tail and that's pretty
much it. It's just like it's very
similar. It's just more round now as
opposed to all these sharp edges.
But you look great, Porsche. The curves really suit.
You why thank you, Corbin. Really shiny.
Very shiny. Yeah, very shiny from here.
Hey, you're looking. You're looking.
You're glowing. Porsche.
Thanks. Professor, I know I'm fabulous.
Yeah. Wow.
Oh. That's a cool room too.
I see some stuff floating. Do you see Rocket?
OK, rockets alive after all, hey?
Wait, we haven't seen Rocket move yet?
Let's just make sure like a pokem or something.
Portia. Good idea.
Wake up sleepy, dreamy. OK, there he goes.
OK, good. OK.
Rocket so alright, so go ahead, go ahead, Porsche, Give him,
give him the upgrade. Oh.
I don't have it. I'm sorry, what?
I said I don't have the upgrade anymore.
I. Used to.
You used. You used the Oh.
My snack on the way here you. Shouldn't eat random upgrades
that we give you Porsche. Ate it as a snack on the trip.
Porsche, that was for Rocket Girl Scout.
Yeah. Did you know you were gonna
evolve? Oh.
Yeah, I. Knew oh you did OK, so you just
knew that the whole time and you were just you just weren't that
titles. Oh my gosh, you are in your like
sassy era. She's so sassy.
God I hope, I hope this doesn't
affect her editing and I hope she doesn't edit in more fart
sounds. Wow.
I think so. That would be awful if she did
that. That'd be awful, yeah.
Y'all promises. All right, so we're gonna
Portia, we're gonna continue on with the lesson.
Now we're gonna talk a little bit about pouring onto.
What about Rocket? How are we gonna?
Are we gonna make sure he's OK? We're gonna upgrade his helmet.
He's here. He's perfectly.
Fine, he's taking a quick break and, and, and Portia, Portia's
got the processing power now. She can go in and, you know,
make a couple changes, upgrade his equipment while she's up
there. Chill.
Goobers, I got things handled up here at the Hiss.
OK, you. So you do have it, Porsche.
OK, good. All right, Well, safe travels
tootaloo, and we'll see you when we see you, Porsche.
Maybe we'll call you back to ask you some questions about
Porygon, too. But yeah, we're gonna work on
the lesson. Take your Hey, Portia, take a
little vacation for you. Still edit the lessons, but you
know, take a little vacation up there.
Don't tell me what to. Do right?
Yeah, you should work a little bit harder.
Yes, see some sites, get some, get some souvenirs.
I'm leaving Hi. All right, thank you, Portia.
Let's go ahead and read some Pokedex entries on Porygon 2,
the sequel to Porygon. The first entries come to us
from the Johta region. The first one says this upgraded
version of Porygon is designed for space exploration.
Whoa. It says it can't fly though.
It can't. So does it just float around
kind of like Rocket was doing in the background?
There I, I imagine just kind of like solid on the ground when
it's like out in in meat space and not in the data world that
that porygons tend to like to live in meat.
Space like that meat space. So, so, so it's designed for.
So did you know that when you sent Porygon up there, that
Porygon 2 was designed for space exploration?
Did you even know that she was gonna evolve?
Yes, I planned this. I didn't.
I mean, I wasn't aware that she would have falled.
But there are plenty of Pokedex entries that said.
That said, we think Porygon can can achieve space travel, so
right, right. So like it was the best choice.
Right. Man, she's gonna have the time
of her life up. There, no, it's she's like,
she'll see, she's like achieving her dreams, like exactly what
she was meant to do. Right.
She doesn't encounter any like aliens or any like space viruses
or anything. Corbin that's a myth that's not
real. There's no such.
Thing as yeah, there's space. Virus aliens can't live in
space. God, this guy.
Sorry. The next entry here says further
research enhanced its abilities. Sometimes it may exhibit motions
that were not programmed. We did hear that.
Well, I mean. Hear that with her, she said.
A little. Fussy.
I mean. Porsche was already like that
though. Porsche.
Porsche was was was their own creation.
They didn't follow anybody's, you know, programming.
Like what kind of right, So what kind of emotions do you think
they're talking about? Like you think like dabbing
like. Oh right, that is AII heard that
in my brain as emotions, sorry. No.
Oh yeah, exhibit motions. Yeah, I was a little bit.
I thought you were talking about emotion of her mouth yapping at
us. No, yeah, I was like, no, she.
Isn't, I think, rocking back and forth, doing a little bit of a
body roll, that type of thing? Yeah, spinning around, swiveling
the head 360, all that fun stuff.
Maybe like hitting, yeah, hitting a sick nasty kick flip
on a on a skateboard that was not programmed, but she did it.
Yeah, yeah. That's any any others any others
you want to. No, I would say maybe, you know,
some break dancing. I think Portia probably has the
flexibility now to break dance. You know, maybe I can, you know,
beat box for her. Well, we might have to get
Porygon Z before we can see the the break dancing protocol.
There's a Porygon Z. What happened to three?
Sunrise just. We just.
We skipped the other, you know, 100 numbers, and we just went
straight to the end of the alphabet.
Sun sunrise pose. Another motion.
OK, let's keep going. This man made Pokémon evolved
from the latest technology. It may have unprogrammed
reactions. All right, so that that's where
the mouthing off came from, the reaction emotional.
Girl. Disgust and and just just just
thinks that she's better than us now.
Yeah, not me though. I mean, she is.
She was already better than us. Yeah, she was.
She she was created to be better.
Oh, and don't forget, even if she's not like with us right
now, she will hear everything we're saying because she is
editing this so. She is editing so the only nice
things about her. And we love and we love you,
Portia. Love you Portia too.
You put in so much work. The next entry comes to us from
the Hoenn region. It says Porygon 2 was created by
humans using the power of science.
Or an upgrade. Yeah, science.
Oh yeah, true. The man made Pokémon has been
endowed with artificial intelligence that enables it to
learn new gestures and emotions on it's own.
That's right. OK, like complicated yoga poses.
Yeah, but like, you know. No, Yes, Go on, Corbin.
I was just going to say I know everybody's concerned about the
rise of AI in the world right now, but I feel like, you know,
Porsche is the counter to that. I think no matter what happens,
no matter how advanced technology gets, Porsche will be
there to guide us. I don't know, like I heard that
it takes a lot of energy to do the required, you know,
calculations and stuff for artificial intelligence.
I'm going to. She's probably gonna make me
feed her more food or something or like give her like.
Yeah, more. Coffins, yeah.
Yeah, more RAM grades. Yeah, yeah.
Oh yeah. She loves Ram with a side of
like yeah, grants side of circuits.
Some ram and some ranch dressing.
Just some Ram ranch, you know what I'm saying?
Give her a nice motherboard I love.
That cousin that's so expensive, I can't.
I'm not looking forward to that. And let's see here.
The next entry in the Hoen region says it was created by
humans using the power of science.
It has been given artificial intelligence that enables it to
learn new gestures and emotions on its own.
All right, we kind of, that was pretty much the same thing.
Moving on to the Sino region, with planetary development
software installed, it became capable of working in space.
I hope she doesn't get caught up working too much because she's
got, she's already got an edit, you know, she already does a
lot. So we're going to have her work
on the the on the hiss. No, we're we're not going to
have her work on the hiss. And honestly, like we might, we
did kind of invade the hiss a little bit.
We didn't tell anybody that we were going there.
Yeah, I don't, I, I think you pretty much have to have a
license to go up there, right. I don't, I don't know, I mean.
Yeah. And like the people who work on
the hiss are known to be, you know, really.
Yeah, real fussy, get angry fast.
That's why we have a term. We even have we have a term that
we use for for how quickly they get mad.
Oh really? What is it I mean?
Well, they say that that people up there, they get hissed off
real quick. Oh yeah, yeah.
So. So she's going to get him real
hissed off. Yeah, she'll have a lot of fun
with the hissers up there. Well, I don't know if we can
call them that, Corbin. Oh OK, sorry they only they can
say that. My bad.
Yeah, All right. So the next entry in the center
region says it was upgraded to enable the exploration of other
planets. However, it failed to measure
up. But not you, Porsche.
Yeah. Not you, Porsche, you.
You. No.
No, no, no. Did your task perfectly.
Incredible work Porsche. But if you want to go to Mars
and grab some rocks or something and bring them back, that'd be
kind. Of cool, yeah, Mars or Saturn
or. Uranus or Venus?
Yeah, I was going to say Uranus. Funny joke, professor.
OK so that does it for the Sino entries that you know, it just
copies Sino Kalos. Nothing new here either.
There are some Alola entries though.
Hey yo, it says for the purposes of planetary development Porygon
was updated with the most cutting edge technology
available. So is this like was the plan
with Poryon 2 to like maybe try to colonize other planets?
Is that what the Planetary Developments is talking about?
Or just a survey other topographical areas you know?
I think there's enough Pokémon that seemed to come from outer
space that we've talked about that it may be good to have one
that we can send up there, you know?
Yeah, wait, why don't we just send send like star you or star
me into space? They they like supposedly come
from space. I I think, I think prop, if I
had to guess, I would say there's probably an ethical
debate there because with star me and star you, it's like a
living creature, which, you know, some would argue that AI
Porygon is not No, no, I'm not saying Porsche.
No, I'm not saying that. Porsche, I'm not saying that,
I'm saying I think it effects. I'm not saying that.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Porsche knows what I'm saying.
I, I, I, I, I'm not saying that I think that.
I'm saying the argument we made that this is something that is
created strictly for that purpose as opposed to taking an
already existing creature and saying, hey, we need you to go
out and do this stuff. Whereas Porsche Portia doesn't
need to breathe in space like she can just do whatever.
New idea. Let's get William Shire back in
here, and let's throw a star. Yeah, space there.
There you go, like it. Yeah, OK, we'll work on that.
We'll we'll work on the logistics of that for the next
lesson. Yes.
The next entry here says Porygon was updated to a new version in
readiness for planetary. Sorry, Porygon was updated to a
new version in readiness for planetary development, but that
dream remains unrealized as as of yet.
As of yet, Guess who's in space? A Lola Pokedex entries.
Right now. Yeah, I bet you anything Porsche
is working on planetary development right now.
But she's not. They're developing all of those
planets. I'm sure she's not kicking her
little ball feet up and just relaxing.
I'm sure she's exploring planets.
The next entry says AI has been installed in it.
It learns various things all on its own, but it even remembers
things it doesn't need to know so real.
So that's. True Porsche's.
Porsche's, you know, famous for her conspiracy theories.
I hope this doesn't just drive her off the the deep end now.
Oh God. Yeah, I wonder if she believes
in bird Pokémon now. Good.
Point I mean cuz like all the conspiracy theories that she had
before came from other sources, she might start coming up with
her own conspiracy theories. Yeah, and we can't, we can't, we
can't have her spatting off more nonsense to the class.
I mean, this is a delicate environment for learning
students. Wow, nonsense.
You're you're asking for fart sound effects, my guy.
You I'm so I'm so sorry. Effects.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Portia, your your opinions are
valid. Good.
Perfect, the last entry from the Alola region says even though it
doesn't die in the vacuum of space, it can't move around very
well in zero gravity. She's kind of floating.
There, Yeah. I don't think she can move.
That might be a problem. I see.
I see now why they, the Porygon 2 didn't really measure up to
what they wanted in space. I guess they they should have
put some like thrusters or something on it like that.
It seems like it would have been an easy thing to to do.
Yeah, yeah, exactly. If we can give rocket, you know,
a little jet pack, we can give. We can give Porsche home.
Oh my. God give Porsche Harsha A
jetpack, Oh my. Dude, I'm sure she's she's
probably already created her own at this point right now.
Yeah, but that's what she's working on.
Alright, let's move on to the Gala region.
The first entry says this is a Porygon that was updated with
special data. Porygon 2 develops itself by
learning about many different subjects on its own, like rocket
rocket propulsion I'm sure. So therefore they could just
make a little time mini jet pack.
Mini jet pack. That's right.
Mini jet pack that's. Right, the next entry says after
artificial intelligence was implemented in Porygon 2, the
Pokémon began using a strange language that only other Porygon
2 understand. OK.
So that's, I mean, listen, kids these days do that all the time.
Yeah, that's true. I don't know.
I don't listen. I don't know what Skibity toilet
means. And I'm at this point, like I
don't think I could ask. Yeah, it's right.
I. Don't know.
It's just something you you wouldn't get it.
You know, at my age, we always say the darndest things.
I literally woke up screaming chicken jockey this morning and
I don't even know why I don't. Even know why?
But I tell you, I tell you, who does know?
I tell you who does know. Porsche.
Yeah.
OK. There is another entry here.
It actually comes to us from the Histui region.
I don't know. It's very interesting.
I guess they did have Pokedex entries on Porygon because of
the supposed time space anomalies that were happening
during the Archaeus fiasco, right?
I'm sure. We've all read about it in the
history books. Oh yeah, that was.
Yeah. But Sentry says a bizarre item
caused this Pokémon to evolve. While it now exhibits many new
gestures and expressions, it is it's biology remains
inscrutable. They just didn't know.
They didn't know what was happening with this thing.
Yeah, Porsche. Porsche's body is something that
cannot be screwed. Inscrutable that which cannot be
screwed. That which cannot be screwed.
That's AT shirt. That's AT shirt.
I think there put a picture of
Porsche on it. That's right.
I think there's there's some entries here from the Paldea
region. They are very very similar but I
think they're slightly different.
Going to read them. This artificial Pokémon evolved
thanks to cutting edge science. It sometimes displays behavior
that is not in its programming, and Poryon was upgraded to
become capable of planetary development.
However, this upgraded version cannot even fly yet.
The way they say it makes it sound like it hasn't figured out
how to do it. When it's your fault you didn't
program it to fly, it doesn't make any.
Sense can Poryon Z is that what it is not 3?
Yeah, Z. Can Porygon Z fly?
Do we know that? Corbin No spoilers for the
Porygon Z lesson, which I'm sure is coming up very, very soon.
Sorry, I'm sorry, I will hold my opinions and my thoughts until
we inevitably and absolutely get to the Porygon Z lesson.
All right. So actually that does it for all
the Pokedex entries on pouring on to.
Yeah, there's no unique entries. It's just just the regional
entries that we have. I guess Ash never came across
this one Or Dawn. Dang, Ash.
OK, a little mystery being here, OK.
But yeah, so does anybody have any questions for Poria for
about Porgon too? Do we want, do we want to like
just call Porsche real quick and see see what she's up to and
she's see if she's figured out how to move around in 0G yet?
Yeah, sure. Yeah, we can.
Yeah, go and flip the laptop up again and let's let's see what
she. Can Well, laptops went up this
whole time, that's how I Yeah. Porsche.
Alright, Porsche. I haven't called her yet.
I haven't called. I haven't called her yet.
I've just, I thought I was looking at a picture of her.
I guess that's just. No, that's my background.
That's your background. Yeah, I didn't.
She put it there, I didn't change it.
And every time I try to change it, she changes it right back.
All right. She's a dastardly 1, all right,
give her a call. All right here.
Pushing call button now. What's good, homies?
Hey. Portia.
Oh wow, that hey Portia. Look at what has been working.
On Oh, you do have a little jet pack on you now, yeah.
Look at that, you're just sitting there and inside that
0V. Jet pack.
OK, Yeah, I'm. Listen, Portia, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I I didn't know that you
couldn't move around. OK?
I didn't know that I was just reading Pokedex entries now.
Probably should have read them first, right?
Just say, Portia, do you have any other conspiracy theories
that you have like to share with us now that you've evolved?
I really did test the term conspiracy theories.
I call them real truth ideas. OK, fine.
Real truth ideas, as she likes to call them, not.
Enlighten enlighteness Enlighteness with the truth,
the. Government prioritize this
profit over people and would willingly burn this planet to
the ground if it meant they could sell you the ashes.
That one might be real. That one might be real.
That's less of a conspiracy theory and more just like an
observation on our capitalistic society.
But OK, you know what? All right, all right.
Anything else? Fish Pokémon are all terrorists
and. Here's OK, that's.
That's that's. Not that you alright.
Alright, my portion can't. Don't hang up on me, I will.
She turned it back on. Now cut the feet again.
OK, just close it this time, yeah.
Sorry I'm old, I don't know what buttons do.
That's all right. It's fine, man.
It's all right. Just skippity toilet your way to
the button that says end call and click.
It this Skippity toilet on over to Ohio and hit the that's
right, exactly end call button. Second chick so I can chicken
jockey the off button. Yeah, chicken jockey, the off.
Button Do we know anymore? Do we know anymore?
Have we done all the ones we know?
Listen, if you guys don't stop it, I'm going to crash out, all
right? So.
Sorry, yeah, I don't know. Porsche looks really good.
No cap. For real.
For real, no cap. OK, All right, so let's go ahead
and move on to the testing portion.
So today we're going to be doing an essay question.
Nice and easy. This is a participation
assignment here. So it's I don't have a rubric
for it. I just, you know, sometimes I
get curious. Me too, and it usually ends up
with me getting hurt. Well, I get curious about
sometimes Poke X century seem to focus on one single aspect of a
Pokémon when I feel like there's so much more we could talk
about. And that's what essay questions
are for. So this one is for Porygon 2.
The question here that I would like for you guys to answer are
or is what other areas would Porygon 2's upgrade allow it to
explore? Now, I don't don't just say, you
know, don't just give me like a location and then leave it out
of this as an essay. I want you to explain why and
what would make Porygon 2, you know, good at exploring in that
area. OK, does that sound good?
Makes sense? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I hear you. OK.
All right, go ahead. I have no idea what he's.
Talking about, yeah, I don't know what like in other places
that Porygon 2 could go based on their upgrade, right?
So, OK, yeah, I think that I think that that's what he's
trying to. We got you.
Yeah. We got you, OK.
Sounds good you. Kids mumbling back there.
No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, you're you're you're
really not risen and up the class right now, professor just.
Kind of shove ahead just. Let it know.
Just go. Just totally unknown Ohio break.
All right, let's see who who here is, who's ready?
Who wants to go first? Really.
I wrote mine quickly, it just makes the most sense.
All right, great. Can't wait to hear it.
Can't wait to hear your several sentences.
You got it. Am I going first?
Right. Yes, Yeah, I know we.
Don't usually do that of. Course, I know.
Yeah, I know. Breaking, breaking kayfabe here.
But let's go ahead. I'll let you go first.
Yeah. All right, So what other areas
of Porygons 2 upgrade allow it to explore?
First one I thought of and makes most sense to me is I think
Porygons upgrade would allow it to be able to explore the center
of the Earth because we know that, you know, based on the
knowledge that we have that Porygon 2 can navigate in low
oxygen environments because it can, you know, move around in
space and with, you know, it's it's used to it can't move
around in zero gravity unless it has a jetpack like Porsche does.
But we know that like Porygon is made for space exploration,
which means low oxygen and 0 gravity.
So I think if if, if Porygon were to explore the center of
the earth, like the actual center of the earth, I think
based on how gravity works, I'm not going to explain it.
I think, you know, you do kind of have that like 0 gravity
effect if you're in the center of the earth.
Now, however, space is cold. The center of the earth.
I could be wrong here, but I don't think it's cold.
Nobody knows. Nobody truly knows.
We've never been there. How could we?
So you would have to maybe plan for that.
But I think because of low oxygen environment and because
of the ability to traverse in zero gravity, I think the center
of the Earth and exploring what's down there deeper than
where Grouton can go, I think would be kind of cool to see
what's what's what's hiding in there.
What other mysterious legendary come on high in the center of
the earth? Corbin, may I ask a follow up
question? Sure.
How are we getting it to the center of the earth?
It's easy, you just dig a really big hole and you throw a laptop
down there. Well, you, you obviously just
fax her down to the fax machine that's down in the center of.
The year Oh my God, I forgot that's.
Right, the central planetary fax machine I forgot about the CPF
about. That the the CPFM.
Yeah, the center planetary fax machine I forgot about.
That forgot about the CPFM. So stupid.
Yeah. So you just fax it?
You fax it? Yeah.
OK, a whole fax pour gone too down there.
All right. Good job, Corbin.
As I said, this was a this is a participation grade, so you do
get full marks. But I got it because I've also
lost my knowledge. Right.
Thank goodness for you that it was a participation grade.
Thank you. Mr. Curtis, would you like to
give us your take on what areas you think pouring onto could
explore? Well, funny enough, I think a
preference. One of you has to change.
I think perfect. No, no, no, no.
Not quite the center of the earth.
But I said I think. Of a different planet.
I think the perfect place for Porgon to to explore would be
deep mines and caves are common in many regions.
There's, I mean, just think about it, there's caves all over
the place in a lot of different regions and they can, a lot of
times they can be very dangerous.
They like exploring in space. They could have issues with air,
like maybe not enough air or maybe there's some like
poisonous gases being released down there.
I don't know. Also, like when they get down in
there, they're not sure exactly what they're going to see find.
So like Porygon 2's ability heightened ability to learn and
adapt to new situations. Would be really handy down in
the mines like oh, you know, is there a rockslide?
Oh, is there is there like poisonous gases coming out?
Oh, is there, you know, a a random, you know, I don't know
drill bur down there that like nobody was expecting.
It can take it. You know, yeah, it can take it.
Yeah. So like, you know, the, the
Porygon 2 is ability, you know, heightened intelligence allows
it to adapt to, to new situations that are down there
that we may not be adapting, which would be great.
And plus plus, you know, as a added bonus, you know, Porgon
2's inability to fly would not be an issue down there cuz it's
down in the ground instead of there you go, you know, trying
to fly outside. But I mean, it's still, it would
still need to move around. Yeah I know, but they just walk
like normal. They don't have to fly cuz
they're in a case. I don't know if they can walk,
like I don't think they can walk at all.
I think they just kind of. Think she can.
I think Porsche kind of rotate her little ball feet and just
kind of walk like that. Yeah, we gotta, we gotta get.
Some somebody animate that for. Us don't listen, listen to him,
Mr. Curtis. I was going to, you know, be mad
and be like, no, you got to do 1 because Corbin already said that
one. But I think I think this is
different enough. I think I think, you know,
exploring minds and kind of being like a rescue Pokémon for
areas that, you know, humans or other living things can't really
go in. I think it's a it's a very, very
good idea and the adaptability that that pouring onto has, it
would also be very useful in these kinds of situations.
So good job. Good job, Mr. Curtis.
Thank you. I think you you, even if this
wasn't a participation grade, you would definitely get full
marks. Oh, thank you.
See, Professor. Professor, that's all.
That's all I wanted was for you to be proud of me.
Allergies acting up? No, I'm proud of you.
I'm just. I'm just I'm.
Certainly not proud of you. Don't, don't.
Don't be confused. I'm not proud.
He's not proud of you, Yeah. Jeez, I would never say.
That mildly entertained by you. But you said good job, that's
all I. I mean, yes, you did a good job.
He. I mean, I could be surprised
that you did a good job because it doesn't happen often.
I am. OK.
So let's go ahead and wrap up this lesson.
I think we've learned everything.
Yeah. Porsche, play the wrap it up
music. Give us the whole.
Give us the Porygon 2 version of it.
Porsche on that beat. Let's go.
What, what, what, what? What?
Let's go. What?
What WWOP? I don't think, I don't know if I
told you guys this, but all of the music is going to have new
versions now that Porygon has evolved so.
That's weird. It's just, it's just pitched
down a little. Bit I, you know, I think I heard
a little bit different in there. There's some different beats,
yeah. Maybe, maybe.
I think we'll have to play it again, find out.
Yeah, play it right now. Porsche on that beat.
Let's go. What, what, what?
What? What, what?
What? Let's go watch.
Watch WWO. D Now that I listen to it again,
you're right, it does sound different.
OK, so does anybody know what Pokémon we're going to be
learning about next time? Is it Decidui, Professor?
It's Porgon. Z it's not Porgon, Z it's not
Decidui. It's kind of a completely
different. It's like a full, complete
change. Is it a?
What type is it? Oh, it's a normal type.
Is it Smeargle? It's not Smeargle, but we are
getting, we are getting close to Smeargle.
I know you're very excited for Smeargle.
You, Corbin, you always when you send me Gengar.
Gengar males. It's always.
Are we learning about Smeagle yet?
When's when's Smeargle coming up?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, wait, this is Stantler. Yes, we are learning about
Stantler next week. I can't wait.
Sandler's very interesting Pokémon.
And when I say next week, I mean next week for the first time in
a while. When I say next week, it's not
because I'm completely messing up.
We are in fact learning about Stantler in one week's time.
That's right, the the headmistress has decided that
the weather here in the golden Golden Rod City has cooled down
enough. We don't have to be worried
about the AC exploding or whatever she was worried about.
So we. Are going September fall
weather's in now, Yeah, it's like.
It's like a little bit chilly outside.
I love it. It's.
Getting chilly early? But yes, we are going back to a
weekly release schedule on these lessons or a weekly class
schedule. So please make sure you update
your, I don't know, calendars and so you can attend each
lesson. Yep.
So until then, if you would like to reach out to me, the
professor, you can send a Gengar mail to wwwpokemon@gmail.com.
You can also find us on TikTok. You can also find us on
Instagram. Yeah, you can find links to all
those things in our description. You can also find a link to our
YouTube channel, Corbin. Corbin.
Hey, Corbin. Yeah, tell him about the
YouTube. YouTube channel has honestly a
little bit of everything. There's funny clips on there.
There is the Pokémon Emerald Nuzlok right about his
playthrough we're doing. There's the streams every Sunday
at 7:00 PM. There's a ton of stuff on there
and we've been putting a lot of time into it.
So go in the link in the description and go check out the
YouTube channel and subscribe and you'll never miss a video
ever. And for the videos that they're
going to miss that aren't on the YouTube channel, Mr. Curtis,
tell them what's on the Patreon. Well, there's some great things
on the Patreon. I mean, I think everyone can
agree. We can all say it together.
The best thing on the Patreon is, of course, my doodle.
That's right. Yeah.
So there's we've got, we've got
my doodles. Of all.
Of all of the. Pokemons we've learned about in
class. We also have a question and
answer series where you get to ask us questions.
We have bloopers and outtakes, so I'm not sure what we're
putting in there because we never mess up in class.
So like there's there's no bloopers to listen to.
That must be a Porsche thing. I don't know.
She must. She must edit it to make it
sound like we mess up and then she puts that in there.
Right. Yeah.
That's my conspiracy. But yeah, those are great things
on Patreon. You should go check it out,
Yeah. All right, Well then I think
we're going to end the lesson here.
So until next time class is dismissed.
